The History of Thieves

Europeans began producing essential oils in the 12th century. During the Plague of the 15th century, certain thieves robbed the dead without becoming infected. Finally, four thieves were captured in Marseilles, France, and charged with robbing the dead and dying victims of the plague.

At the trial, the magistrate offered them leniency if they would reveal how they managed to avoid contracting the dreaded infection, in spite of their close contact with infected corpses. It was disclosed that these thieves were perfumers and spice traders who had rubbed themselves with a concoction of aromatic herbs (cinnamon, clove, and oregano).

The formula for the Young Living Essential Oil blend, Thieves, is derived from the aromatic herbs used by the thieves of 15th century France.

Thieves Oil is a proprietary blend of therapeutic grade, 100% organic, aromatic oils containing Cinnamon Bark (Cinnamomum verum), Clove (Syzygium aromaticum), Lemon (Citrus limon), Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus radiata), and Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis CT 1,8 cineol).

  • If essential oils of cinnamon, clove, lemon, eucalyptus and rosemary can effectively kill all harmful airborne bacteria and viruses in as little as 30 minutes according to Professor Griffon, you may ask yourself what problem the world may have with ... the bird flu, for instance?


  • Mothers who know about the power of diffusing Thieves in their homes often notice that their children don't get sick as frequently. Read all about Nature's Health Insurance here.


  • People who love their pets, use essential oils to help their four-legged friends stay healthy and flee-free. They diffuse Thieves in the home, and use Thieves Spray on their pets' bedding.


  • If people knew about the power of Thieves Oil, they would use it on mold too. There are severe health problems associated with toxic mold that grows on walls.
